How does adult onset Type I diabetes work? Is it “burnout” of the body’s ability to make insulin? Why isn’t it noticed sooner? Does good lifestyle prevent symptom development?

Its actually the immune system attacking the pancreas beta cells. They don’t really know why it happens or how to prevent it.
Had a bad cold almost flu like at age 42. One night I woke up multiple times dying of thirst, and then of course needed to pee 30 minutes later. Woke up the next morning and my near vision was all blurry. A buddy at work was Type 2 and gave me his meter to test. Welcome to diabetes!!
